In order to obtain an account in the intensive calculation systems of the University of Valencia it is necessary to have previously a University email account: like “Name.Surname@uv.es”. Students’ accounts (like “user@alumni.uv.es”) are NOT valid for obtaining the calculation user).

Both the user name and the password assigned in the calculation server will be the same as those of the email server.

The password cannot be changed locally (within the server), but it must always be the same one of the email. If you wish to change it, you have to change the email password.

The procedure for applying for it depends on whether you are a PDI staff member or not.

PDI staff

The assignment of the user code in the calculation server is direct in the event of being a PDI member (Teaching and Research Staff) of the University of Valencia, from the website of user management, clicking on the link entitled Calculation Account.

Remark: this link will only show if the user is listed on the server’s database as PDI member. It can happen that sometimes the user is a member of the PDI but does not appear in the list as such. In these cases, if the problem is not solved (this is, appear as a PDI member) the only solution is to follow the other procedure, and apply for a supported account.

Non-PDI staff

In the event of not being a PDI member (PAS, 3rd-cycle student supported by the department, etc.), the authorisation of the Director of the Department, Institute, etc. is necessary.

You have to access the corresponding request form, fill up and submit the for to open the corresponding ticket, and once it has been submitted, print the generated form and, once it has been signed by the Director, send it by fax to this service (96 354 42 00).

The user will be sent an email indicated when the user code had been activated.
